A book I just don't remember reading and another great example of Miss Marple's expertise.
Again a great story by Agatha Christie, with some wonderful characters and an intricate plot that I certainly never guessed.

Not one of Christie's best mysteries but not one of the worst either. I enjoyed it as a study of the time & following the shrewd Miss Marple's deductions.

Agatha Christie books are always good. this is no exception.
very strange, intriguing, smart.
Actually you could guess the killer but untill the last page you can't be sure about it and it will drift yu at end.
I wonder how she is able to write so many mysterious plots. she is a legend. ...more
